I have more than one 1911, but this one was an amazing bargain at $349 brand new.

++++++++++++++++++

I’m 5... is this based on a model made in 1911, where’s the number come from?

Is the slide easy to use?

The gun is based on the original 1911, version A1, which was adopted and used by the US military.

A little history of the weapon, AKA the “45 auto”.....
